Be Open and Listen

Be open to new approaches to old situations. Do not allow your mind to trap you in old stories or ideas that no longer serve you. Simply because something did not produce the desired results in the past does not mean it is unworthy to explore again. Be open and listen without telling old stories.

Thanks, Alan! I hear so many people endlessly, mindlessly repeating their stories of illness, injuries, and emotional trauma. I always picture an old-time LP record with the stereo needle carving a deeper groove every time…. I still do it too, but am catching myself quicker these days. Thank you for the reminder! You’re awesome. 🙂
